Size and weight are big decision factors when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs.
In this section, we are going to illustrate the Panasonic ZS80 and Panasonic LX100 II side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Panasonic ZS80 has external dimensions of 112 x 69 x 42 mm (4.41 x 2.72 x 1.65″) and weighs 327 g (0.72 lb / 11.53 oz) (including batteries).

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Panasonic ZS80 is significantly lighter (65g ) than the Panasonic LX100 II which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Panasonic Lumix DC-ZS80 (Lumix DC-TZ95) nor Panasonic Lumix DC-LX100 II provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.

LCD Screen Size and Features
Panasonic ZS80 and Panasonic LX100 II's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Panasonic ZS80 features a
Tilting screen where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels whereas the Panasonic LX100 II has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to ZS80.
